To configure the Microsoft Entourage email client for Macintosh,
please follow these steps:
- Open the Entourage email client (program) and click the "Tools"
menu.
- Select "Accounts" from the drop-down menu.
- Click the "New" button in the top left-hand corner of the
Accounts window.
- Enter your name as you would like it to appear to the
recipient.
- Click the radio button next to "I already have an email address
that I'd like to use".
- Enter your email address in the field provided (e.g.,
"you@yahoo.com.ph").
- Select "My incoming mail server is a(n) POP3".
- Enter pop.mail.yahoo.com.ph (your incoming mail server) in
the field provided.
- Enter smtp.mail.yahoo.com.ph (your outgoing (SMTP) mail
server) in the field provided.
- In the "Account ID" field, enter your Yahoo! ID (e.g., your
email address without the "@yahoo.com.ph").
- Enter your password.
- To have the Entourage client remember your password so you
won't need to enter each time you send or receive mail, check the
"Remember password" box.
- Enter your full Yahoo! email address in the "Account Name"
field.
- Click "Finish".
Important: The Yahoo! SMTP server requires authentication. To
enable this setting, do the following:
- Open the Entourage client (program) and click the "Tools"
menu.
- Select "Accounts" from the drop-down menu.
- Double click your Yahoo! account.
- On the Account Settings window, scroll to the "Sending Mail"
category toward the bottom.
- Click on "Click Here for Advanced Sending Options".
- Check the box next to "SMTP Server Requires
Authentication".
- Close this window by clicking the tiny box in the upper
left-hand corner.
- Click "OK".
To ensure the new settings are configured properly, we suggest
closing the Entourage client and opening it again before sending or
receiving messages.
